hiking

I know I have mentioned a few times on air that I’ve been dieting and I’m not sure I’ve mentioned all the exercise I’m getting. This all started in January.

Indiana has over 400 miles of scenic areas for backpackers to enjoy and offers a unique experience that shouldn't be overlooked.

If you're truly looking for a path less traveled, there is one in Missouri you need to consider. It's been named one of the best off-the-beaten path parks in the state and I'm convinced that's not wrong as it's full of streams and waterfalls.

Missouri is known for its vast variety of state parks and now there's a new one. The truth is it's really kind of heavenly and I can prove it with science (and some videos and pics).

I'm a big fan of fire towers. The idea of being a watchout in the Missouri wilderness is a bucket list thing. However, even though there is a fire tower in Missouri you can hike to, don't even think of climbing it.

Normally, the more beautiful the hike the more difficult it is to do. This Illinois hike is the exception. It's a short hike that just about anyone can do, but it takes you through scenic and massive rock canyon walls.

If you don't mind being a little daring, there's a hike you can do in Illinois that will take you across one of the most scenic structures in the state. It's a 90 foot stone bridge and there are no railings to hold onto.

There are a lot of places to hike in Missouri, so if you say you've found the best one, that's really saying something. Based on online ratings, there is one hike in the Show Me State that almost constantly is rated as one of the best and there's new video to show why.

Most people that haven't been to Missouri don't think of mountains when they imagine what it's like. Perhaps that should change as there are multiple videos that show how pretty it is from Taum Sauk, the highest point in Missouri.

Three new Big Twigs grow the Malone Lake State Park family in Kentucky to six with the addition of the latest massive 14-foot tall creations.
